Question

Sona wants to study and compare the accelerations of two uniformly accelerating bodies. Which of the following should she do?

  1. Plot a position-time graph
  2. Plot a velocity-time graph
  3. Both 1 and 2
  4. Neither 1 nor 2

hintHint:

Slope of velocity time graph represents acceleration.

The correct answer is: Plot a velocity-time graph


    • Sona should plot a velocity-time graph. As the slope in velocity-time graph represents the acceleration of a body. So, the value of a slope at a particular time represents the acceleration of body at that instant.
    • Whereas slope in position-time graph represents velocity.
